Cloud Networking
Cloud networking is the term used to describe an infrastructure in which third-party providers make certain resources and network functionalities available via the so-called cloud platform. Network management, data connection and control are shifted to cloud services. Network resources include virtual routers, firewalls and network management software. Users and internal and external computing resources access the network to communicate with each other. Cloud networking allows management devices to be reduced to a minimum, thus lowering costs. In addition, the external service providers are responsible for managing and protecting the network.
